Senior Engineering Manager

We are looking for a Senior Engineering Manager to lead our Fintech domain and play a critical role in shaping a reliable, scalable, and evolving platform that supports both customer payments and internal finance operations.

This is a high impact leadership role in a business critical domain. The scope covers the full lifecycle of efood’s payment and financial transaction flows, from the moment a customer pays for an order through downstream processing and controls, including refunds, cancellations, fraud checks, vendor payouts, reporting, and regulatory responsibilities. The role requires strong engineering judgment, people leadership, and the ability to drive progress across a complex stakeholder environment.

You will work closely with Product Managers, Finance stakeholders, Engineering leaders, C-level stakeholders, and Delivery Hero teams to improve domain operations, raise the technical bar, and support the evolution of the domain as the business grows.

Our tech environment

We operate a microservice architecture with more than 80 services that handle high request volumes using both synchronous and event-driven communication patterns.

Our stack includes Golang, REST APIs, gRPC, Kubernetes, AWS and GCP, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and messaging platforms such as Kafka and cloud messaging services.

We are part of the Delivery Hero group and collaborate closely with their Global Services teams.

What you will do:

• Lead the Fintech engineering domain through a mixed team structure that includes an Engineering Manager and senior engineers, and shape the team structure over time based on domain priorities, scale and organizational needs.

• Partner closely with Product Managers to support delivery of new payment capabilities and domain improvements, while contributing technical perspective, tradeoffs, and prioritization input.

• Work closely with Finance stakeholders to improve end-to-end finance flows, reduce discrepancies, increase automation, and drive clarity across cross-team issues and dependencies.

• Provide technical leadership across the domain by guiding architecture and design decisions, coaching engineers and managers, and raising the bar on engineering quality, ownership, and system thinking.

• Drive execution across multiple services and teams, including dependencies on Delivery Hero-provided services, by keeping priorities clear, surfacing risks early, and maintaining visibility on progress, constraints, and outcomes.

• Support the team in balancing feature delivery, reliability, and technical improvements, with selective hands-on involvement when needed to unblock progress or support critical decisions.

• Coach, mentor, and support the growth of engineers and managers through regular feedback, clear expectations, career development conversations, and a high standard for accountability and collaboration.

• Contribute to domain planning and roadmap definition in partnership with Product and leadership, including architecture improvements, operational efficiency, reliability, and maintainability.

• Ensure domain services and systems are reliable, secure, scalable, and well operated, with strong engineering practices, clear ownership, and disciplined operational readiness and observability.

• Promote effective collaboration across engineering, product, finance, and external partners, and help the team navigate ambiguity and organizational complexity.
